Lol, yeah I was considering a dual boot thing going, but I figured some of the media software I wanted to integrate was already available with XP. I like Linux, don't get me wrong, in fact I used GParted to expand my HD from 6 to 80 gigs, but see my take on Linux is: Linux is great you can do everything, but you have to do everything...too much micro management with writing all the kernels. Also I don't think the eManage support tool can be easily configured with Linux, and I want to integrate that in eventually, so that when I get a wideband 02 and an electronic boost controller, I can tune on the fly (kinda).

I'm thinking navy would win because his boost is constant, mine has a (barely noticable) lag. Hopefully, with enough finance management though, I can be up to around 270ish by the end of the summer (not likely though cause the show season always takes up too much time). As far as the sound of my BOV....at partial boost, it blows off kinda like a sequential BOV. At full boost, it has a good sound (not sure which one to compare it to, because I have never heard either the SRT's or the EVO's). With the 8.5lbs of boost though, as well as the tightness I have the BOV set to, it's not super loud, which is good because navy and I have a similar idea....keep the outside clean but distinctive, let the rice roll up and sound off their 4" Autozone exhausts, then come back at 'em with a nice subtle blow off (or in his case, prolly sounds like a jet engine about to go into afterburn), and maybe a bit of tire smoke. The nice thing is that if they don't get the hint, you can always just go balls to the wall and show them that they really should put more effort into their rides Not that I ever race mind you....I just drive away very spiritedly while they try to keep up.
